The X-Axis by Paul O'Brien
(paul@esoterica.demon.co.uk)
Daredevil/Spider-Man #2
For those keeping track, Daredevil was meant to have an issue out this week and failed; Daredevil: Ninja should have finished by now and is still stuck on issue #1; and so, at a relatively brisk one week late, this series demonstrates a comparatively puritan work ethic. And it's a pretty good Daredevil story in mainstream superhero mode. When Jenkins and Winslade are actually able to make the Stilt-Man and the Owl into credible opponents, they're doing something right. I'm not at all clear what Spider-Man's doing in this book, though; everything about the title screams Daredevil so far.Grade: A-
